Quarterman) Newsgroups: comp.std.unix From: uunet!rti.rti.org!tijc02.uucp!pjs269 (Paul Schmidt ) Are the UNIX System Parameters part of any standard? How do you develop an application that uses system calls such as msgget, shmget, and semget, so that they will run on all systems without violating the system- imposed limits? I know that for AT&T UNIX System V.2 on DEC processors these limits are configurable. On Apollos they are not. What about SUN? Are there any workstations that can be configured? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Schmidt USENET: rti!tijc02!pjs269 Texas Instruments PHONE: (615) 461-2461 PO Drawer 1255 M/S 3517 Johnson City, TN 37605-1255 Volume-Number: Volume 16, Number 49
